A Headrick woman was hospitalized Monday afternoon after being involved in a one vehicle accident near Altus in Jackson County.

According to the accident report provided by the Oklahoma Highway Patrol, the accident occurred on US-62, 11 miles east of Altus when the 2016 Ford F-150 that 19-year-old Diamond A. Kittrell was a passenger in attempted to make a turn onto a county road when it failed to negotiate the turn, departed the road, and struck a culvert.

Troopers said as a result, Kittrell was taken to OU Medical Center in Oklahoma City where she was admitted in stable condition with an arm injury.

Two juveniles in the pickup, a 2-year-old male and a 1-year-old female were both uninjured in the crash.

The driver was uninjured as well.
